2. I'll be up to watch the world around us live and die

"Just a night?!" Kevin cried out in a harsh whisper.

As he sat on the rusted roof of the broken old station, he contemplated, for the first time in a long time, his own future. What about his family? Ben had a family…even if it was sort of make-shift. Ben had a family that cared and looked out for him and accepted, hell even appreciated his powers. Kevin winced at the thought.

"As if…they would only call me a freak!" he mumbled

"Who?" came a quiet voice from the dark.

Kevin spun around, immediately alert, only to find Ben in a pair of green boxers and his tee shirt.

"No one…" Kevin sighed and relaxed back onto the roof.

"It's cold out here, Kev. You gonna come inside?"

Kevin just shrugged and watched as Ben made his way back inside.

A smile tugged at Kevin's lips and he looked out at the New York skyline.

"Maybe family wouldn't be so bad."
